    1) of my google account number as it appears in my account
    2) of my vbseo control panel analytics section
    3) my goals settings in my analytics account. (i have one with the "required step" checked and one without and i don't get any completed goals

    Please help

    Hmm. You should be getting some in the first steps no matter what. I don't see anything wrong.. Can you go throug the registration process on your site, view the source, and see if the funnel code is being added?

    Re: Google Analytics Funnel problems

    Hello Eric,

    I see that you have analytics code inserted twice in your header: one is added by vBSEO, while another one is probably entered manually in template. Please try removing one of them and see if that helps (remember that reports are not updated in real-time by google analytics, so you should wait some time to check this).

    Re: Google Analytics Funnel problems

    ok... so, this was driving me crazy so i had to figure it out. The account number i see in my analytics was UA-372759, when i looked in the vbseo account is shows

    Code:
    Enter your Google Analytics Code
    Enter your Google Analytics Code in the following format: UA-9999-1
    
    So i just assumed that you enter it in as the last digit after the dash. I had entered UA-37275-9

    When i looked in my header the account number was formatted as
    UA-372759-1. So i am thinking this is my problem. You may want to put it in future versions as "Enter your Google Analytics Code in the following format: UA-XXXX-1" for guys like me.

    Thanks for the time in looking into this for me. Hopefully this will work!!
